Water-cooling Project Part I

Alright here we go, this is my brand new computer built original started during December 2008 and finished about a week ago (damn rad…)

System specs:

CPU: Interl Extreme QuadCore X9770 @ 3.2GHz

Motherboard: MSI X48 Platinum

RAM: Corsair 2x2GB @ 1600MHz

GFX Card: Sapphire ATi Radeon HD4870 @ 1GB

HDD: 1.25TB Western Digital

The cooling system is the following:

CPU Block: Swiftech APOGEE GTZ

GFX Card Block: EK-FC 4870 waterblock

Rad: Feser X-Changer 360mm Xtreme

Pump: Swiftech MCP655™ 12 VDC

Reservoir: Swiftech MCRES-MICRO™ Rev. 2

The tubes used are Tygon 3603 1/2″

So far and because of the damn exams and the broken radiator only the cpu block is in place while I am searching for northbrigde block solution. Unfortunately my precious HD is air-cooled , it really breaks my heart with the 59 degrees celcius but it has to wait. Anyway, here are a few pictures of the case so far along with a small video ;)
